Food in Bandar Baru Bangi or BBB

Bandar Baru Bangi is a medium size town not far from Putrajaya and can be considered as an outskirt of Kuala Lumpur. It is an up and coming town. You can see nice expensive houses and cars.  It is also an academic town inhibited by at least 50,000 people. In  BBB, you will see higher institutions such as UKM, UPM, KLIUC, Poly-tech Mara, Kuala Lumpur University and Tenaga University. But did you know that it is also a place where you can have some nice food adventures? There are some nice  places in BBB that you  can have delicious and cheap dishes:
The steak

1) Steak in Bandar Baru Bangi: There is a reasonably nice steak house near Tasik Cempaka and not far from Billion shopping center. I think the place is called D One Steak House (3 stars for the food and 2 stars for service). The price of a steak is quite reasonable between RM 12 to RM 14 ringgit. However, the portion is not very large. The choice and quality of the meat are also not too good. But the best dish at the restaurant is Fish and Chips that costs only RM7.90. The fish is reasonably big and crispy and served with crispy Fries and thick Tartar Sauce. The best time to go to the restaurant is during lunchtime when the dish is freshly prepared. But the best steak in BBB is at a restaurant called Taste (4 star for the food and 3.5 stars for service) which is just a few meters away from Yati Ayam Percik. However, I think the restaurant is closed for renovation. The large sirloin stake there is fantastic just like the one that you see on the AFC channel. It's also garnished beautifully. The brown sauce is thick and tastes delicious and prepared the American way.
Murtabak Daging


2) Murtabak Singapura in Bandar Baru Bangi: There is a place (3.5 stars for the food and 3 star for service)  in BBB which serves nice, thick and succulent Murtabak Singapura RM 12,  Murtabak Marsha RM 5 or Murtabak Daging that costs only RM 6. The murtabak is served with a mixed  cucumber and onions in sweet homemade chilly sauce.  The combination of Murtabak and the sauce is really marvelous. Having the Murtabak is a memorable experience. You will never forget the experience of having the first bite. The restaurant is located near Shell Petrol Station in Section 2 of BBB. The place is next to Sekolah Agama Rakyat that is being constructed.

Mee Bandung Muar

3) Roti Bakar in Bandar Baru Bangi: The best roti Bakar in BBB  is a place called Restoran Tepian Bangi  (4 stars for the food and 3.5 stars for service) in Seksyen 4 Tambahan. The roti is sliced thick from roti Mamak and spread with a generous amount of soft margarine and aromatic Pandan Kaya. The bread is nicely toasted using a special oven. It's crispy on the outside and moist in the inside. It costs only  RM.2:80. (a little on the expensive side for a roti bakar) Normally, you have the roti bakar with telor Ayam kampong (RM 2.00 for two)  that is also served at the restaurant. The eggs are really yellowish red in color. Typical egg color from happy free range chicken.

4) Mee Bandung in Bandar Baru Bangi: The best Mee Bandung is not in  Muar but at a place called Restoran Nasi Minyak  (4 stars for the food and 4 stars for service ) in BBB. The restaurant is not far from the Econsave hypermarket  BBB in the section where there is the night market or sometimes called the Uptown market which is held every night. The gravy is very thick and aromatic and rich with Udang Kering and fresh prawns. The portion given is more than enough for a big size man. Really marvelous Mee Bandung

So these are the places that you can enjoy some of the dishes in BBB. You can give your  feedback to me  of your food adventure at salambangi@gmail.com
